Cleaning Instructions:
The removable screen seed trays inside these durable feeders have a steel mesh bottom to allow proper drainage and keep seed fresher. To clean, remove all seeds and debris from the screen and the feeder. Clean with hot water, a mild soap, and use a scrub brush (#818426) to remove droppings and other stuck-on residue. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before refilling.

Whether the species of birds you desire are native to your area, or migrating through, you can increase your chances of attracting them for a short or extended stay by providing the right feed, in the right feeder, installed in the right place.

Answer:

Try suet with hot pepper. Mammals apparently can not tolerate the pepper, but birds don't sense it. I would buy a commercial product with hot pepper rather than lacing it yourself ~ too much is harmful to birds.
